One Click Booster removal instructions

What is One Click Booster?

On its website, One Click Booster is presented as a software designed to clean, speed up and optimize Windows computers. It may look like a legitimate and actually useful tool, but the problem is that its developers promote it using a "bundling" method. In other words, it is very likely that many people install it unintentionally, accidentally. That is why One Click Booster is categorized as a potentially unwanted application (PUA).

One Click Booster allows to perform a scan that, once finished, will show if there are any malicious programs, errors on a operating system, registry issues and so on. To fix any problems, uninstall unwanted programs, remove threats and so on, it is required to activate it. Simply put, free version is capable only of detecting issues, not solving them. However, applications that are promoted using the aforementioned "bundling" method cannot be trusted. There are many various system optimization-related (and other) PUAs that display fake results. They are designed to encourage people to buy them by making them think that there are many problems with a PC. It is unknown whether One Click Booster is one of these apps, however, most apps of this type (potentially unwanted apps that are promoted via "bundling" method) are. Besides, quite often this method is used to promote more than one unwanted application at once. Typically, apps of this type get installed together with various browser hijackers or adware-type apps. If installed, these apps either feed their users with various intrusive advertisements (coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups and so on) or/and collect information related to user's browsing habits. Generally speaking, having apps of this type installed might cause various problems related to browsing safety, privacy and so on. We recommend to uninstall One Click Booster or any other unwanted, unintentionally installed applications/programs as soon as possible.

One Click Booster is quite similar to other programs of this type, for example: Registry Scanner, Lowe Registry Cleaner, Power PC Care 2018 and a number of others. As mentioned above, most of these apps are presented as useful and legitimate. However, quite often apps that are promoted using "bundling" method are not that legitimate as they might look. In fact, many of them do not provide their users any real value (and/or promised functions).

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

One of the ways One Click Booster's developers promote it is using a website where it can be downloaded. However, it is very likely that most people install PUAs through intrusive ads (clicked ads that download/install unwanted applications) or when software developers use the "bundling" method. It is a deceptive marketing method used to trick people into downloading and installing various apps together with other software that was downloaded/installed willingly/on purpose. Simply put, they hide these apps in "Custom", "Advanced" and other similar settings of software download or installation setups. Information about unwanted apps usually is not disclosed properly and that is how people who rush installations or processes/perform them without analyzing cause unwanted installations.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

First, software should be downloaded from official websites (and using direct links), third party downloaders, unofficial websites, Peer-to-Peer networks and other similar channels should not be used for that. Very often these tools are monetized by promoting various unwanted applications (sometimes their usage might cause computer infections as well). Another important thing is to install/download software with care: pay attention to details of every software download and installation setup. Check "Custom", "Advanced" and other available options deselect offers to download or install PUAs. Moreover, intrusive ads should not be clicked, especially when they are displayed on unofficial, questionable websites. It is because most of these advertisements, once clicked, cause redirects to gambling, pornography, adult dating and other similar, untrustworthy websites. However, if these redirects happen without even clicking any ads, or ads of this type appear on any visited website, then it very likely that it happens because of installed unwanted apps. We advise to check a list of installed browser apps (extensions, plug-ins and add-ons), if there are any unwanted entries, we recommend to uninstall/remove them as soon as possible. Same goes for programs installed on the operating system. If your computer is already infected with PUAs, we recommend running a scan with
Spyhunter for Windows to automatically eliminate them.
